Failed to download chart or image in SharePoint 2010 excel services

Hi,
I have one document library in SharePoint 2010. I have uploaded one excel sheet which is having chart. Now when I am trying to open it in browser, but it is showing me below error on chart part of excel sheet.
'Failed to download chart or Image'
This is happening on prod server. I tried similar process on lower environment in SharePoint 2010. It is absolutely working fine. I checked all services, settings on both farm but doesn't find any clue.
Please help.

Hi,
What do you mean by lower environment? Does it mean the lower version of SharePoint server?
To solve this issue should try changing the "Maximum Chart Size" Excel Services Trusted Location setting.
By default it is 1MB, so if a chart is bigger than that, it won't render.
For similar issues, please refer to the following articles:

SharePoint 2010 Excel Services with SQLserver 2012 cubes

I have two tier sharepoint 2010 enterprise setup
1)wfe and app server
2) sqlserver
I also have a sqlserver 2012 which hosts all our BI cubes .
is it possible to connect excel (office 2010) to sql 2012 BI and save that in my sharepoint 2010 server under shared documents and expect it to refresh when aall authenticated users hit " refresh all connections"
It is not able to hit refresh . I get a " unable to refresh data for a data connection in this notebook" the following connections fail to refresh.
Interesting when I do the same this using sql server 2008 r2 BI , everything works fine

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that the SharePoint 2010 Excel Service cannot work with SQL Server 2012.
Did you install Service Pack 1 for SharePoint 2010?
SharePoint 2010 Service Pack 1 is required for SQL Server 2012 PowerPivot for SharePoint features.
Please check if the Service Pack 1 is installed for SharePoint 2010. If not, please download it from the link below and install it:

Sharepoint 2010 search service from C# web service and Powershell - passing credentials to search

Good morning everyone,
I really need your expert help about the following issue. I ve developed a web service in C#. Its core code has a Powershell script inside which makes a call to SharePoint 2010 search service to make some search queries, and returns some URL of some files.
In Powershell code I make connection to SharePoint search service using the Farm Admin account. This system works, but given results are not filetered by the user using the web service (I remember you I m using the Farm admin account in PS code)
How can I use user account to make some queries ? How can I filter search results by user ? In Powershell code I put username and password of Farm Admin account and I know them because I m the farm administrator, but
what about if I want to pass Powershell code some other user credentials ? Of course I cannot know his credential .. Can I do it , in which way ?
Any help is really appreciated !
Gae

Hi Gae, if you are using web services, you shouldn't need to add a SharePoint DLL to your project. I would advise against using C# -> PS -> Web Service Call -> PS -> C# if you could go straight C# -> Web Service -> C#.
Anyways, back to the matter at hand. Do you know what type of authentication your SharePoint server is running? Is it direct NTLM, NTLM over Kerberos, Claims, or something different?
The following article provides the various types of impersonation available in SharePoint:

In our organisation, development team is asking to install office 2013 in SharePoint 2013 server to use different services, where as architecture team not allowing for the same. I need to provide proper justification for installing office 2013 in SharePoint
2013 server. Please provide me the correct solution for the same.

No, you do not need to install Office on the SharePoint server to utilize the Excel Services. Office should not be installed on the SharePoint server.
Do they need Office Web Apps? Are they looking to have the capability to edit documents in the browser maybe? Or have document preview on search? Office Web Apps would be required for this, but this is a different product than Office.

Problem rename sharepoint 2010 search service application admin database

Hi all,
i have a problem that hopefully someone has an answer to. i am not too familiar with sharepoint so please excuse my ignorance.
we have sharepoint 2010 on a windows 2008r2 server. everything seems to work fine. but as you know, the default database names are horrendous. i have managed to rename all of them, except for the "search service application" admin
database.
the default is: Search_Service_Application_DB_<guid>
the other 2 databases (crawl and property) were renamed without a problem.
we are following the article from technet on how to rename the search service admin db (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-nz/library/ff851878%28en-us%29.aspx). it says to enter the following command:
$searchapp | Set-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication -DatabaseName "new database name" -DatabaseServer "dbserver"
however, i get an error about identity being null. no big deal, i add the -Identity switch and the name of my search service application. but the real problem comes the error it throws:
Set-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication : The requested database move was aborted as the associated search application is not paused.
At line:1 char:54
+ $searchapp | Set-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication <<<< -Identity "Search Service Application" -DatabaseName "SharePoint2010_Search_Service_Application_DB" -DatabaseServer "dbserver"
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidData: (Microsoft.Offic...viceApplication:
   SetSearchServiceApplication) [Set-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication], I
nvalidOperationException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Cmdlet.SetSearchS
   erviceApplication
when i look at the crawling content sources, i see "Local SharePoint Sites" and it's status is Idle. i even looked at this article on how to pause the search to no avail. (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee808864.aspx)
does someone know how i can rename my Search Service Applcation Admin database properly? or at least "pause" that service so i can rename it?
thank you all in advanced

If you want to have no guids for your search admin db, i recommend you check out this script :)
just delete your search service application (assuming you have just started)

Hi Basva,
Do you want to provision two search service applications in single farm?
Commonly, only one search service application is needed in a farm for Search function.
Here are articles for detail information about how to provision search service application using powershell:

Point Imaged/Cloned Sharepoint 2010 to different/renamed SQL 2012 server - what needs to be changed/edited?

Newbie here... I am using our development VM's one has SP 2010 installed/working and configured and the other is SQL 2012 housing the DB's for the working SP sites and a third running IIS and hosting the pages. I want to use clones to copy to additional
VM's, rename the SQL and rename the SP 2010 (the IIS will stay the same just add the cloned site to it. MY question is "Is there an automated way of reconfiguring SP 2010 to point to the new SQL server? (I've already figured out how to change the SID
information and run the queries on the SQL, just need info on the SP 2010 part.)
Thanks,
Jon P.

You can't do this, don't try it. For VM purposes, SharePoint does not support:
Time Sync
Snapshotting/Checkpoints
VM Backups (e.g. SAN-based or VMDK/VHD-based backups)
You will cause problems doing what you're attempting to do, unless you isolate these VMs onto a new network that has no access to the production network -- in this case, you would also need a copy of one Domain Controller from production, as well.
Best bet is to build a new farm and restore content to it via content database/service application database restoration.

SharePoint 2010 Search Service is not working on replication of Servers.

Hi, I have a problem. I have a SharePoint Farm in which there are two servers with ip's 192.168.8.60 and 192.168.8.62. Both are replicas of each other. The search service is working on 192.168.8.60 and not working on 192.168.8.62. What can be the problem?
Also tell me how can I make the search service working on 192.168.8.62. What can be the issue?

Hi,
Could you provide more details about how the search service doesn’t work?
Are the search service unable to be started in CA -> Application Management -> Manage services on server? Or did you find it not working when you did searching? If that is the case, could you provide the error about
it?
It would be helpful to solve this issue if you provide more details about the issue.

SharePoint 2013 Excel Services Blue Spinning Icon After Re-Open

Troubleshooting an issue (or determine if it's a normal function) where Excel Services will open a external data connected excel file the first time and give a datasource error when attempting to update. After clearing the error message window manually I
close the open file with the x in the top right or back button and re-open. Once I re-open, excel services spins on the file for an infinite amount of time. Other excel files open without issue, only ones specifically with external data connections spin consistently.
I have removed the service application and re-created. The ULS logs show nothing beyond the attempt to refresh the data and open the file as they should. This is a new environment.
Is this part of the operation of Excel Services? Or is this specific to external data connections?

Which type data did you use? Was it SQL data or other data?
- SQL Data
What errror did you meet when you attempted to update?
- Refresh hadn't been configured yet. Received a "entitydatasource" error, i.e. couldn't refresh since it wasn't setup correctly.
How did you configure the external data connection for excel service?
- Initially kerberos/WinAuth, later SSS.
Whether the other excel files you mentioned was the files without external data
- All files that have external data experience the issue.

Initiate Excel Refresh with SharePoint 2010

Hey guys,
I've got question. I use SharePoint in connection with Excel, but there is a problem. Normally the data is handed over from SharePoint to an Excel Sheet and this Excel sheet does a lot of calculation and then it is shown in the excel webpart. Sometimes the
data is not up-to-date, then I have to refresh Excel manually.
Is there any possible way to push this refreshing without a script?Or is a script the best way to handle this?
Best regards and thanks in advance
Matthias

if you are not using the excel services and you want refresh your data from client side.You can do with script and schedule it as task run what ever time you want.
their are 2 things, again
1) the document library which required checkout before editing.
# This is the location of the document library that has the Excel files
# You must have WebDAV enabled on the server (which is default, I think)
# and the webclient service enabled and running on your workstation.
$library = "\\sharepoint.ad.local@SSL\DavWWWRoot\Shared Documents"
# Start Excel (it will be invisible unless you do $excel.visible = $true)
$excel = new-object -comobject Excel.Application
# Give Excel time to open or it errors inconsistently
Start-Sleep -s 3
$excelfiles = get-childitem $library -recurse -include "*.xls*"
foreach ($file in $excelfiles)
  $workbookpath = $file.fullname
  if ($excel.workbooks.canCheckOut($workbookpath)) {
    # open the worksheet and check it out
    $excelworkbook = $excel.workbooks.Open($workbookpath)
    $excelworkbook = $excel.workbooks.CheckOut($workbookpath)
    # Don't ask cuz I don't know (yet). You have to open it again.
    $excelworkbook = $excel.workbooks.Open($workbookpath)
    # Refresh all the pivot tables with the new data.
    $excelworkbook.RefreshAll()
    # Save and Check it in
    $excelworkbook.Save()
    $excelworkbook.CheckInWithVersion()
$excel.quit()
2) Document library where no checkout required.
# This is the location of the document library that has the Excel files
# You must have WebDAV enabled on the server (which is default, I think)
# and the webclient service enabled and running on your workstation.
$library = "\\sharepoint.ad.local@SSL\DavWWWRoot\Shared Documents"
# Start Excel (it will be invisible unless you do $excel.visible = $true)
$excel = new-object -comobject Excel.Application
# Give Excel time to open or it errors inconsistently
Start-Sleep -s 3
$excelfiles = get-childitem $library -recurse -include "*.xls*"
foreach ($file in $excelfiles)
  $workbookpath = $file.fullname
    # open the worksheet
    $excelworkbook = $excel.workbooks.Open($workbookpath)
    # Refresh all the pivot tables with the new data.
    $excelworkbook.RefreshAll()
    # Save and Close
    $excelworkbook.Save()
    $excelworkbook.Close()
$excel.quit()

Upgrade Sharepoint 2010 SQL Reporting Services from 2008 R2 to 2014

I'm about to do the upgrade of SharePoint 2010 Reporting Services from 2008 R2 to 2014. The instructions say it can be done "in-place" with no downtime. I've seen this article:
http://whitepages.unlimitedviz.com/2012/03/upgrading-sql-server-reporting-services-to-2012-in-sharepoint-integrated-mode/
It covers 2012 so I assume the same holds true for 2014.
I'd like to get the low down from anyone who has actually performed the upgrade of SSRS from 2008 R2 to 2014. Anyone done this upgrade? Any issues?
David Jenkins

So far I would have to say that the upgrade can be done "in-place" but there is a "DOWNTIME".
This article has helped a lot:
http://blogs.catapultsystems.com/tlingenfelder/archive/2012/07/10/upgrading-sql-server-reporting-services-2008-r2-to-sql-server-reporting-services-2012-in-sharepoint.aspx
In the article it tells you about a bug in the SQL Upgrade process where
the Domain account you use will not work. When you type in the password it fails. On top of that it will lock the Domain account because of a bad password! There is probably something wrong with the authentication process and it garbles the password.
Anyway, you end up having to change the account to the "Network Service" account before you can do the upgrade. This means the services get restarted which means???
DOWN TIME! He goes over other errors. I haven't reviewed these issues yet.
The other thing I learned is that everything needs to be SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 in order to upgrade. You don't find this out until almost the last step in the installation process.
Now I have to wait until next week to actually do the upgrade because I have to schedule an SP2 install. :(
